So Direct Action Is Not An Option Available To You. What Can You Do Right Now Instead?

so direct action is not an option available to you. what can you do right now instead?

Be mindful of the content you’re putting on your social media accounts. Stop retweeting/reposting violent images and videos of black people dying. Know that content like this, even with trigger warnings included, can be very emotionally disturbing/distressing and yes, even traumatic, for black people navigating the internet right now.

Report any images and videos you see where protestors’ faces are visible/unblurred, particularly in content surrounding the lootings. Don’t retweet or repost these images and videos. This can be a death sentence.

I've been attempting to get access to HBO Max outside of America. Using a VPN with a proxy gets me onto the website, but in order to even begin a free trial the site wants your card information, and it doesn't accept payments from banks not established in the US.

I'm thinking it might be possible if you have an American acquaintance who can lend you their card information or even their HBO Max account, but I'm not certain. It's not an option for me in any case, as I don't know anyone in America, but maybe someone else can give it a shot?

I'm not an anti-piracy advocate, but I know that there are plenty of people who would much rather stream content legally, if for no other reason than in order to support their favourite shows. Just tossing this out there. Anyone got any ideas?

God, Taika Waititi's "Boy" is still one of the greatest movies ever made. The only movie that has had me grinning like an idiot with tears rolling down my cheeks.
